Enriching for both pupil and coach. It brought home to me just how powerful words are, and how much more wisely and carefully you need to choose them when coaching by correspondence. This is not to say that you don't have to choose your words wisely and carefully in a face-to-face coaching session, but the beauty of the CI system makes this possible. The FCP is a very powerful programme for development and the structure makes the coaches job much easier. Ali Stewart
Through Coaching Interactive, I have discovered that coaching on-line gives your clients the flexibility to be coached at a convenient time for themselves, it is affordable, there is a wealth of management and personal development library information and most importantly is it totally confidential. This can compliment either telephone coaching or face to face – what a great package to offer your clients! Carole Davidson
I haven't even started to personalise my site yet, that said I have had a good look through all the resources you provide and of all the training, CD's and books, I have bought - this is the best VFM I have invested in yet!!!! Rose Topliff
I found it very helpful to have a structured process to guide me through the initial stages of setting up my interactive coaching business. By working through this step-by-step business development programme I quickly managed to establish my hot spot, create my 30 second elevator speech, produce a brand-new website, set up my personal response mechanism, and last but not least, to temper my natural enthusiasm until all this was in place before I embarked on any proactive marketing. I managed to get my first interactive client before my website even went live and just over a month of having started the process! Now the foundation is in place I feel ready and prepared to really kick-start my business with a huge marketing offensive! Thanks for all your time, help and support, Rob! Clara Seegar
The first stage of the interactive coaching is, as you know, the My Life process, and I would like to share with you just how incredibly powerful this tool has been for me as a first step with the client. This process has allowed me to cover a great deal of ground with the client in a relatively short period of time and has facilitated an uncovering of many facets of their challenges they are currently facing. This journey of discovery into the client's life gives the coach the ability to understand where the client is currently and where they see themselves being in the future and, therefore, guides the coach to select the most appropriate interventions and tools that will ensure the client makes progress based on their timescales, skills and levels of understanding. As I progress through to the next stages of the coaching programme, I am finding that there is a convergence of information that builds a more complete picture of the clients thoughts, emotions and behaviours. Without the My Life process, this convergence would take longer or, possibly, not happen at all, which means that the client is not experiencing the full benefit of coaching interactively and we, as coaches, have not fulfilled our obligation to have the client's best interests at heart. In summary, the My Life process is, in my opinion, the most critical part of the whole coaching process. It is the time that the coach can develop deep rapport , trust and respect with the client, without which there is no coaching relationship. Steve Scott
`I was first coached on how to use The Coaching Interactive Programme by Rob and Sarah Rendle. In the beginning I found it a big stretch. I am an auditory person. I like to listen and talk. I was and am more familiar with coaching on face to face or by telephone. Looking back now, the concept of coaching online at the start seemed an impossible task for me. However, with constant and patient support from Coaching Interactive, I began to understand the process and now believe in it totally. Today Coaching Interactive is child’s play, (easy for me to say that now!). Impossible now for me to even imagine how difficult the process was then. For indeed I have come a long way in understanding and appreciating its value to enhance my life. With access to Coaching Interactive I am absolutely delighted. My mantra from now on is “Coach on, online, Brave Heart. Coach on till my destiny is fulfilled. The world is my oyster, and the sand is my income.' Kevin Kinahan

`I love using the CI platform, I believe that writing is a breakthrough tool and it enables the client to open-up and feel good about himself, as a coach I have the time to check my responds before sending and be more accurate, I can also feel the client and learn about his values and beliefs from his writing' Shiri

`If we just consider the logistical issues alone, interactive coaching is a winning concept. It frees my clients to work at a time of their choosing. Until now I have steered clear of booking midnight coaching sessions - I value my freedom to work when I choose! Now my clients also have the choice, to be coached at weekends, at night, at dawn… whenever suits them best..."
I realise that I have been coaching before I even knew what coaching was. I love words and have always used them as a way of encouraging and supporting others so Coaching Interactive is exactly what the coach doctor ordered. Not only does it provide me with a greater opportunity to see into the needs of my clients but I think it also gives my clients greater focus. Through my clients own words I have greater insight as to where my input and support is needed. And, what’s more I get to be a 24hr coach!’ Carole Pyke |
